FRED MUELLER, wholesale liquor dealer, was born in 1822, near Coblentz, 
Germany; came to America in 1851, and lived in Newark, N. J., about two years 
and in New York City about six months; came to Milwaukee in 1853, and to La 
Crosse in 1854. In July of that year, he started the second butcher-shop in La 
Crosse County, with Louis Pammel (now a farmer living near the city). He 
continued in that business till 1862, then went into the brewing business in 
company with Jacob Franz (now of Sioux City, Iowa); was in that business about 
eight years in the old Eagle Brewery, which he helped build. In 1870, he sold 
out his interest in the brewery and spent two months traveling in Kansas, 
Nebraska and Iowa, then came back to La Crosse and bought out the liquor 
business of John Weber, which he has carried on till the present time on Third 
street. Mr. Mueller has built six or seven dwellings in La Crosse, and still 
owns two of them. He also has an 80-acre farm near the city.
